The coming Kingdom of Yahweh

Many are the web sites and books that are out there teaching about prophecy. It seems that everyone has their own opinion about the events that are taking place in this world as it relates to prophecy. I
just wish that more people would pay attention to what the coming Kingdom will be like!

When the day of Yahweh comes, it will come as a shock to millions:

Isaiah 66:15-24 For
behold, Yahweh will come with fire And with His chariots, like a whirlwind, To
render His anger with fury, And His rebuke with flames of fire. 16
For by fire and by His sword Yahweh will judge all flesh; And the slain of
Yahweh shall be many. 17 "Those who sanctify themselves and
purify themselves, To go to the gardens After an idol in the
midst, Eating swine's flesh and the abomination and the mouse, Shall be
consumed together," says Yahweh. 18 " For I know their
works and their thoughts. It shall be that I will gather all nations and
tongues; and they shall come and see My glory. 19 "I will set
a sign among them; and those among them who escape I will send to the nations:
to Tarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to
the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. And
they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles. 20 "Then they
shall bring all your brethren for an offering to Yahweh out of all nations, on
horses and in chariots and in litters, on mules and on camels, to My holy
mountain Jerusalem," says Yahweh, "as the children of Israel bring
an offering in a clean vessel into the house of Yahweh. 21 "And
I will also take some of them for priests and Levites," says
Yahweh. 22 " For as the new heavens and the new earth Which I
will make shall remain before Me," says Yahweh, "So shall your
descendants and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass That
from one New Moon to another, And from one Sabbath to another, All
flesh shall come to worship before Me," says Yahweh. 24
"And they shall go forth and look Upon the corpses of the men Who have
transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, And their fire is not
quenched. They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh."

Here it speaks of people gathering to worship Yahweh on the New Moon and Sabbath.
Some have said these things are abolished. If it is abolished, how can this be so?
It says that some will taken as priests and Levites. It also speaks of Yahweh destroying all those who eat swine's flesh just before His coming
Kingdom. If it were abolished now, why would it be reinstated in Yahweh's kingdom? If eating pork is ok to do now, why then is Yahweh destroying those who do? The answer must be that the law never
really was abolished. In fact, the kingdom of Yahweh will be ruled by it:

Isaiah 2:2-5
- And it shall come to pass in the
last days, that the mountain of Yahweh's house shall be established in
the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all
nations shall flow unto it. 3 And many people shall go and say,
Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh, to the house of the
Elohim of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his
paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Yahweh from
Jerusalem. 4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall
rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and
their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any more.

More verses:

Zechariah
14:12-21 And
this shall be the plague with which Yahweh will strike all the people who
fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their
feet, Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets, And their tongues shall
dissolve in their mouths. 13 It shall come to pass in that day That
a great panic from Yahweh will be among them. Everyone will seize the hand
of his neighbor, And raise his hand against his neighbor's hand; 14
Judah also will fight at Jerusalem. And the wealth of all the surrounding
nations Shall be gathered together: Gold, silver, and apparel in great
abundance. 15 Such also shall be the plague On the horse and the
mule, On the camel and the donkey, And on all the cattle that will be in those
camps. So shall this plague be.16And it shall
come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came
against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, Yahweh of
hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 17 And it shall be that
whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to
worship the King, Yahweh of hosts, on them there will be no rain. 18
If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no
rain; they shall receive the plague with which Yahweh strikes the
nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 19
This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations
that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 20 In that
day "HOLINESS TO YAHWEH" shall be engraved on the bells of
the horses. The pots in Yahweh's house shall be like the bowls before the
altar. 21Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be
holiness to Yahweh of hosts. Everyone who sacrifices shall come and take them
and cook in them. In that day there shall no longer be a Canaanite in the
house of Yahweh of hosts.

It is obvious that this scripture has not yet been fulfilled. Now to this I ask every man, "Why are people observing the Feast of Tabernacles if this has all been abolished?".
When Yahweh's Kingdom is established and He rules over all the earth, His will is
going to be done "on earth, as it is in
heaven." This being the case, we see that the feast days are going to be
kept and we see that all Gentiles will be expected to keep them. If the
feast days really were only for Israel, why would Yahweh punish the Gentiles who
refuse to keep the Feast of Tabernacles? I think it's high time that we start
doing the will of Yahweh now. After all, how can we be rulers in His kingdom if
we don't seek to adhere to the rules of the kingdom?

You might also have
noticed that sacrifices are mentioned in verse 21. To this I also ask, "Why is it speaking of the altar and sacrifices coming back if this has all been
abolished?" Now it is evident from scripture that we are not to do this
without a priesthood in place. At this time our High Priest is reigning from
heaven and there is no established priesthood on earth. But when there is an
established priesthood on earth, sacrifices will indeed be returning. This may
seem bizarre to the average Christian, but it is often missed that Paul himself
went into the temple to make sacrifices:

Acts 21:26 - Then
Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into
the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until
that an offering should be offered for every one of them.

Acts
24:17 - Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and
offerings.

Paul was there with four other brethren who had taken a Nazarite vow. The
offerings mentioned were related to the Nazarite vow mentioned in Numbers 6. The
entire reason Paul was there was to prove to false accusers that he kept the law
of Yahweh. And it was James who suggested he do it. I don't believe Paul or any
of the disciples were liars or pretenders. They were Torah observant believers
in Yahushua even as we should seek to be.

It is also predicted in
the book of Ezekiel:

Ezekiel 37:21-27 - "Then say to them, `Thus says Yahweh Elohim: "Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;
"and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king over them all; they shall no longer be two nations, nor shall they ever be divided into two kingdoms again.
"They shall not defile themselves anymore with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. Then they shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim.
"David My servant [shall] [be] king over them, and they shall all have one shepherd; they shall also walk in My judgments and observe My statutes, and do them. "Then they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob My servant, where your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell there, they, their children, and their children's children, forever; and My servant David [shall] [be] their prince forever.
"Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them, and it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; I will establish them and multiply them, and I will set My sanctuary in their midst forevermore. "My tabernacle also shall be with them; indeed I will be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.

Following this chapter of Ezekiel begins a vision of a future kingdom of Yahweh that has never been fulfilled. It speaks here about the House of Judah and the House of Israel being united into one kingdom. This all leads into the remaining chapters of Ezekiel which go into GREAT detail about what the coming kingdom of Yahweh will be like. It talks
a lot about sacrifices and feasts. Here is one example of where it speaks of the Passover:

Ezekiel 45:21-24 - "In the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall observe the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.
"And on that day the prince shall prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bull [for] a sin offering.
"On the seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to Yahweh, seven bulls and seven rams without blemish, daily for seven days, and a kid of the goats daily [for] a sin offering.
"And he shall prepare a grain offering of one ephah for each bull and one ephah for each ram, together with a hin of oil for each ephah.

Note here that there is no Passover Lamb! We know that Yahushua is our
Passover Lamb (1Corinthians 5:7). So sacrifices will still be offered, but they
will be done in somewhat different ways than the way described in the law of
Moses. Some of these verses in the latter chapters of Ezekiel mirror passages
found in the book of Revelation. For instance:

Ezekiel 47:12 - "Along the bank
of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used
for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They
will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary.
Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine."

Revelation
22:2 - In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was
the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its
fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the
nations.

Taking all these scriptures into consideration, it is very clear that the Law was never abolished or taken away. Some may try to say, "Well, Yahweh gave the law, then took it away the law for a time and then He brought it back again". This is absurd! Not only that, it is unscriptural. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He does not change (Mal. 3:6). Also, consider:

Colossians 2:16-17 - Let no man therefore
judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath [days]: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body (is) of the Messiah.

The Torah/Law that we observe ARE a shadow of things to come. Not WERE (As some might say). The Torah will be kept in the Kingdom of Yahweh, no doubt about it. This is why when I keep the Feast of Tabernacles this year, that will foreshadow the coming Kingdom in which all flesh will be forced to observe it.
For anyone to judge me for keeping it, they need to take a closer look at
scripture because these things are commanded to be kept. Sadly, men have adopted
the festivals of pagans (Christmas
and Easter for instance) and incorporated them into their worship instead. And oh yes, about these
verses in Colossians? Notice the word "(is)" which is in parenthesis. This means the word
was added to the text by the translators. Therefore this scripture is speaking literally of the "Body of the Messiah". Now if you read it as it stands it would say...Let no man judge you therefore in meat, drink, etc....which are shadow of things to come, but the body of the Messiah. In other words, we SHOULD be keeping these things just as we will be keeping these things in the wonderful Kingdom of Yahweh.
Read a more detailed study of Colossians 2 here.
When the day of Yahweh comes, those who sought to keep Yahweh's commandments
will be revealed as people who sought to walk in the ways of the kingdom. The
true things concerning this kingdom have been ignored for too long.

Acts 8:12 - But when they
believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of Elohim, and the
name of Yahushua Messiah, they were baptized, both men and women.
